the lost boy
When i read this book i thought it was sad. because no one should go throught whta he went through. I liked this book. It was about a
boy name
Dave pelzer who was abused as a
child
. Some of the chalenges he goes throught are that he cant find a
family
that
love
s him and acually accepts him for who he is.This story is a good story about dave life and how he had to go throught what he did. It is rreally sad. If oyu read the first one i serioulsly consider reading this one it is the second in three series. The first on The
Lost
Boy was also a good book it was more sadd but i thought it was a good 5 star book.You really should be 11 or polder to read this book because there is some bad language and there are some hard words to understand. But you should deffintiotly read this book

The Lost Boy
The book The
Lost
Boy
by David Pelzer is recommended to teenagers and adults. This book may be too graphic for
child
ren. This is a true story about Dave Pelzer as a child going through five different
foster homes
after being taken out of his home from his mother. This book, in my opinion, was a very well written book. It might make the reader uncomfortable, because of great details throughout this book. Many people may like this book because as you read it feels as though you start to care for the character deeply and start to feel what he is feeling. Some of the things his mother did to him would be to make him eat poop, or make him eat his own puke.
The Lost Boy connects to another book named The Pearl. Both books connect with each other because of their strength and courage. David Pelzer went through abuse physically and emotionally. Physically from his mother and emotionally because of how other people treated him. People treated Dave differently because he was a foster child. In The Pearl by John Steinbeck, Kino, one of the main characters, showed courage by being willing to go and die for his
family
. My reaction to both books was great. In The Lost Boy I personally
love
d how throughout the book he is
search
ing for something he never thought he would find, and finally at the end of the book he found it.

Lost Boy
This book along with the accomping book a
child called
it are page turners and was not able to put it down one acceptional book. Also read the last book at it is just as good when you purchase this book you want to order all of them together so that you can read the others as soon as you finish the first one.
